Radhanath Swami on The Monster Striking Back
We should not feed an envious venomous serpent; that will only increase its venom. Due to its natural envy, it will eventually strike us. This is what we do in our lives. We put our precious energy into selfish egoistic activities without serving God. Eventually the monster of our own karma comes back to strike us. We are left wondering why, despite being so nice, bad things are happening to us.

Thats so ture. Time is passing by so fast days months years are appearing like a flash so sometimes we feel who cares nothing happens continue with life king size and one day we are hit badly and then we think why is this happening to me. We need to take shelter of someone like Radhanath Swami who can guide us.
ReplyDeleteAs explained by maharaj very clearly, serving god is sukruti, causes no bondage at all! We shud avoid from indulging into sinful egoistic activities.
ReplyDeleteThnks for teaching & guiding us maharaj.
wonderful analogy, thank you very much maharaj.
ReplyDeletePeople blame God for their sorrows, but do not realize that its their own doing which comes back to them. Thank you Radhanath Swami for reminding us!
ReplyDeleteWhat goes around comes around. Radhanath swami very nicely explaning it here.
ReplyDeleteOur own karma, yet we see it like this is the first action, and not the reaction to whatever action we have already done. Hypocrisy, at least in my case.
ReplyDeleteThese comments and writing make it so clear that for any uneventuality; if one wishes to blame there is only person to blame. SELF.
ReplyDeleteBetter to work now self and not to feed the serpent than later blame others.
Thank you Radhanath Swami.
Its a whole new world when we start accepting that what all happens in my life is mostly my own past doings results. It inspires us to live an exemplary life. As ususal, Radhanath Swami explains it in style.
ReplyDeleteHow true. Thank you Radhanath Swami.
ReplyDeleteThis is a nice explanation of karmic reaction by Radhanath Swami which is in conformation with the phrase - 'As you sow, so shall you reap'.
ReplyDeleteWe must have proper knowledge of the consequences of our actions.
ReplyDeleteAll our actions which are disconnected from GOD are causes of misery for us.
ReplyDeleteThank you Swamiji for enlightening us with your profound wisdom.
Radhanath Swami gives a similar kind of message through the analogy of feeding the bad dog.
ReplyDeleteThank u for showing us our real face
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding us how destructive is to be self-centered!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful answer to the question people usually ask "Why do the bad things happen to good people". When we try to enjoy without God, we have to carry out the karma with us in the same or different life and then we don't understand why things are happening the way they are happening. Thank you Radhanath Swami for enlightening us for this.
ReplyDeleteNicely explained by Radhanath Swami maharaj, If we try to enjoy independently from God, then how we invite suffering in life.
ReplyDeleteWhy do bad things happen to good people? This is a frequently asked question by people who are distressed and confused with the way the material world functions. However Radhanath Swami clearly defines the crux of the problem - Us. Thank you Radhanath Swami.
